# qiskit\_noise\_learning.models.contains\_pauli\_lindblad\_model

`qiskit_noise_learning.models.contains_pauli_lindblad_model(model: LinearMap) → bool`

[GitHub](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-noise-learning/tree/stable/0.1/qiskit_noise_learning/models/utils.py)

Whether a map is, or contains, a [`PauliLindbladModel`](/docs/api/qiskit-noise-learning/generated/models-pauli-lindblad-model "qiskit_noise_learning.models.PauliLindbladModel").

**Parameters**

**model** – The map to inspect.

**Returns**

`True` if `model` is a [`PauliLindbladModel`](/docs/api/qiskit-noise-learning/generated/models-pauli-lindblad-model "qiskit_noise_learning.models.PauliLindbladModel") or a [`ComposedLinearMap`](/docs/api/qiskit-noise-learning/generated/math-composed-linear-map "qiskit_noise_learning.math.ComposedLinearMap") whose chain contains one.
